Yes...about a year ago.
At least the two most overexposed singers in the UK of the last few years are talented though. I'm not a fan of either's music but i'd rather them than some auto tuned dance singer.

Adele was getting a bit annoying in the first half of 2011, but I don't feel she's been that overexposed since. I don't feel Emeli is either, but I've hardly ever watched TV in the past few years, so that's probably why.

I think it's a very different scenario with Adele than it is with Emeli. apart from radio TV etc Adele stays away for the most and for the last year hasn't performed on Tv and has only recently in terms of personal appearances appeared again. Whereas Emeli is all over TV and Radio relentlessly every award show and big event going she will no doubt be on the bill. It's as though Adele refuses and Emeli steps in.

Emeli Sande is a supremly talented singer-songwriter who deserves all the success she's been getting. You have to remember that she is just starting out with only one studio album under her belt therefore of course she is extensively promoting herself in order to establish herself and have a wide reach.

Haha so true Konebyvax

And i understand that but if we are comparing Emeli to Adele when Adele was starting out she had exposure but not anywhere that of the exposure that Emeli gets as Duffy was hogging the limelight and she was kind of sidelined.

True. And Emeli has been trying for YEARS. I first heard of her in 2009, but with no face to the name.

I can't stand Emeli Sande. I think she's vastly overrated. She has a nice voice but her songs are really bland middle of the road fare. I think the Olympics performance did it for me really. Why did they have to have her performing at it? As for Adele... well I thought she was overexposed in 2011 but she seems to be fairly quiet at the moment. I'm not big fan of her either but I liked Set Fire To The Rain and the Bond song.

Neither releases my kind of music to be honest - I realise both are talented, Adele especially but I would say...Emili is now over exposed hugely. The problem [ not her fault as such ] was the Olympics where she was all over it. I also find her music a tad dull to be honest and it doesn't help her when radio plays her songs all day.

Adele..much more talent...better songs...but again, commercial radio especially play her endlessly and eventually, with the best will in the world, you end up turning the station over!
